Xiao Ye BAI, Appellant, v. The STATE of Nevada, Respondent.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
This court's review of this appeal reveals a jurisdictional defect. Specifically, the district court entered the judgment of conviction on September 10, 2021. Appellant did not file the notice of appeal, however, until November 16, 2021, well after the expiration of the 30-day appeal period prescribed by NRAP 4(b). This court lacks jurisdiction to entertain an untimely appeal. See Lozada v. State, 110 Nev. 349, 352, 871 P.2d 944, 946 (1994) (explaining that an untimely notice of appeal fails to vest jurisdiction in this court). To the extent, if any, that appellant's appeal is in regard to the postconviction motion to withdraw a guilty plea, no decision, oral or written, has been made on the motion. Accordingly, this court
ORDERS this appeal DISMISSED.
